I love those painted covers. They put such craft into every one, it seems.

 

Peace,

 

Chip

Yeah, I love them.

Most are by Kelly Freas and John Shoenherr - but there is one by Feodor Rimsky, which is awesome!

 

 

[Chip Cataldo]

If you're in the mood to snap a photo I'd love to see it.

 

I've been a huge Isaac Asimov fan my whole life so I really dig sci-fi paintings.

 

Peace,

 

Chip

[Beige]

No worries Chip - had to dig through a couple of hundred issues...

 

This is the only Rimsky cover. May 1965.

 

[Chip Cataldo]

Fantastic. It conveys so much atmosphere with a minimal number of colors.

 

Thanks a lot for posting it.

 

Peace,

 

Chip

We drove up to St. Augustine for Halloween... Went on the worst ghost tour ever... But then found the flea market on the way back home.... I'd say it more than made up for the ghost tour....

In 1984... Hmm... Yea, yard sale prices were probably that, well if you're lucky. Wow

Amazing score, FD.

[01TheDude]

.10 X 10 = 1

ROI = 1000% not 10,000%

 

though they might be worth $10 each, which would be 10k%

 

or is this setting some sort of Office Space joke about "always messing up the decimal point"?

They had a great big pile of books for a dime each. Lots of romance novels and bad spy novels, and those two.
